A remote for your kitchen

40_ring_cooker_1

A watched pot never boils. That’s pretty much the reason behind the design of the 40Ring induction cooker. The control panel for the cooker has a wearable ring that pops out. Once worn, the ring can act as a remote controller, allowing you to change the intensity of the heat, or switch the cooker off. Ideal for situations where you need to keep your distance from the heat (or even in the event of a short circuit).
